Sometimes they are a part of a company's fabric from day one, but all too often they are introduced in response to a specific incident or public moment, such as the #MeToo movement. It's now commonly accepted that training employees how to identify and combat harassment is the key to an inclusive, successful workforce. Lately, however, many have questioned whether these training programs are effective.
